Lagos State Governor, Mr. Akinwunmi Ambode has entered into an emergency closed-door meeting with his commissioners and aides over his political future in the All Progressives Congress (APC), ahead of the commencement of party primaries.
According to Daily Post, the governor has been in talks with key stakeholders of his cabinet following reports of a decision by the “godfather” of Lagos politics and National Leader of the APC, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, to withdraw support from his second term bid.
Daily Post also reports that the Governor is weighing the option of a last-minute defection to the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, or the Action Democratic Congress, ADC, both of which are part of the Coalition of United Political Parties, CUPP.
